Establishment of US Hegemony in Cryptocurrency 

The ‘crypto week’ aims to establish America’s dominance in digital asset innovation while protecting consumers and preserving financial freedom, said Chairman Tim Scott in a statement. Apart from protecting consumers, the package also encourages the development of Web3 businesses in the US to ensure America’s dominance in blockchain technology. 

“The golden age of digital assets is here, and the U.S. will lead,” said Rep. Bryan Steil. “Passing stablecoin and market structure legislation, alongside a CBDC ban, will ensure the U.S. wins the Web3 race.”
